Omg where do I start. I will however give a non emotional yet thorough response. I've been here since September 2019. First of all, not sure how they determine rent, they based it off of a job I had for 6 weeks instead of myā€¦Ā See More >

    They have rodents!! Management is useless AND not friendly. Communication is nonexistent. Maintenance is EXTREMELY slow. Elevators are out months at a time and nasty.

            Oakwood shores is a horrible place to live. Management is inept and maintenance rarely has supplies to address maintenance work orders. If you want to be ignored and low priority. Rent with Oakwood. If not walk on by!

                  Resident of Oakwood Shores since 2009. I am ONLY still here because aesthetically, there aren't any other affordable, comparable, apartments in the area.
